Richard Calvo Art

Although his education had prepared him as a journalist, it was Richard Calvo’s camera that brought his name to the limelight. In the mid-1960s, he photographed and reported on the United States military operations in Vietnam. Since then, he has been winning award after award.
His works have been primarily on landscapes and have been compared to the works of Andrew Wyeth and Robert Frost. At times his photography is graphically evocative, depicting images from the delicate harmonies of nature, while at other times it’s silent and contemplative, reawakening the lost art of being alone.
The New York Times’ Helen Harrison described Calvo’s work as being romantic and almost abstract in its concentration in texture, tone and shape. His work has a deceptively simple style which develops into a more demanding and complex sense of reality. They stretch beyond the straight forward and beyond the boundaries of visual perception.
He believes that his prints aren’t more important than the techniques he uses to create them. Calvo believes that each piece is important as each individually contribute its own distinct personality. He now travels throughout the east each year. Dedicated to his art, he captures his uniquely styled images which he then prints digitally in his Long Island studio. Calvo introduces his prints each spring, in small, limited editions.
His images may be viewed in galleries throughout the United States, Europe, Japan Canada, and as well as in many corporate and private collections. The Bentley Publishing Group has made available his published reproductions worldwide. Framed Richard Calvo art can be found in galleries and are in most cases provided ready for installation.
